Covid incentive payments

None

Morning all,

Can someone point in the right direction of how the incentive payments during covid are paid and if they appear on any of the ESFA reports?

£3000 16-24

Thank you 

Laura

What is the incentive for?

Laura Howard

Hi Martin,

They're to do with: 

Cash boost for apprenticeships launched - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

I have tried to find some guidance somewhere but nothing am struggling

Steve Hewitt

These all went straight from ESFA to the employers, didn't they? So they'll not be on any of our reports because we didn't have the money at any point.

Ray Davies

Steve is correct, the employer claimed for the incentives via their AS account and received the money into their AS account. We were out of the loop in this regard (despite many employers opinions to the contrary). A video explaining the claim process is here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQJjjAzXO7k

that is what I had read but we have employers asking us about them.

Thank you all
